Didn't really get what going on at first, but the graphics are good and I like the music.

Challenging sidescroller here with a catchy tune in the background. Thought it was cool the bees had banded together to make a guy in a suit! Firing too many bees or getting wasped too many times leads to death and then another game restart. Cool, interesting game with an interesting mechanic. 3.5 Overall!

I liked the music.

Wish there was a hud or indication telling me how many lives/queen bees were left.

Whoa man the wasps are a little too fast, I felt like I couldn't catch them and shoot them fast enough! Also would be great to have some indications of how many bees I have left and how much longer left until the finish line.

It's also relatively samey all the way through, so different kinds of platforms or enemies would help add some strategy and more interesting choices for the player to make.

I love the idea of spending your own life to shoot bullets (we considered doing that for our own game at one point as a matter of fact)!

My only real complaint is not being able to move downwards through the platforms by hitting S. I had plenty of times where jumping didnt make sense but I couldn't move through the platform. Overall it was pretty fun.

I liked the game but I have a few suggestions.

- Show a UI bar or something so that I know how many bees I have left - The wasps are WAY too fast

I think it's better to make it a auto-run game. The destination is on the right, and moving to the left makes little sense. This background is very rhythmic music.

I had fun, but the wasps are a bit too fast. The audio and graphics are really well done. Great job! :D

A fun little game, a bit fast pace for my taste. I didn't get much use out of the shooting as I just dodged all the enemies. The music was also nice.

I couldn't tell if there was a way to win aside from just moving to the right and avoiding wasps. Did this title screen have more things on it than were actually in the game?

I agree with the bees are a bit fast. One recommendation if you have time next jam is to get people to play it before you finish and see if they have any feedback they can give you, then you'd be able to sort out little UI things like that.

But still, nice job! I liked the music :)
